Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for command timer interrupt are described. In some cases, a memory system having a host-driven logical block interface may maintain a timer to measure processing of commands. For example, upon receiving a command and storing the command in a command queue, a protocol controller of the memory system may issue the command to a command controller of the memory system and initiate the timer. Upon receiving a response for the command from the command controller, the protocol controller may reset or stop the timer, depending on whether the command queue is empty. If the timer expires prior to receiving a response for the command, the protocol controller may issue an interrupt signal to the command controller.

Abstract: A PCB analysis utilizes manufacturing capability data shared in a multi-tenant collaborative network in a mixed cloud and on-premise environment. Access to a tenant's account of a DFM application deployed on the tenant's premises is provided. The DFM application is enabled to activate the PCB analysis on a DFM profile with manufacturing capability data. The tenant's account requests a utilization authorization of a given DFM profile stored in a cloud data layer. When the utilization is authorized, the given DFM profile is downloaded embedded in a locked DFM envelope, which locks together the given DFM profile with an injected identifier of the authorized tenant's account. Via the DFM application, when logged into the tenant's account, the PCB analysis is activated by permitting the unlocking of the DFM profile from the DFM envelope only when the identifier of the tenant's account is the same as the injected identifier.
